[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ADHD is really a superpower once you learn how to manage it.[/quote]

+1. This is why I don’t think ADHD shouldn’t be classified as a disability. It’s just a different way of thinking. [/quote]

Should have written: “This is why I think ADHD shouldn’t be classified as a disability.”[/quote]

It's a disability because society is just not compatible with ADHD. People can't stand being around ADHD symptoms the 98% of the time then when ADHD superpowers spring into action it appears too routine or easy for anyone to appreciate. For example, I was spaced out at DS's baseball game then subconsciously reached out and caught a line drive foul ball heading for a woman's face. She was thankful obviously but people were more confused than anything.

Anyways, the successful ADHD people either got treated early and avoided the inevitable frustration/anger from school-age years or their naturally developed coping mechanisms led them to viable careers. The natural path sucks which is why so many of us have an ah-ha moment during adult diagnosis where we finally recognize why we are so different.[/quote]

But it’s not a disability. It’s not an impairment. [/quote]
